Day 159
Tuesday August 5th
Thayer was featured as the guest speaker at Brooks. Man what a night. I have no idea where to start..., though it did finish up soaked in tequila at El Rey downtown-- for the record, that's the night that was soaked in tequila, not me.

Day 158
Monday August 4th
Monday August 4th
Saw the Beach Boys at the fair tonight. Well not really AT the fair. I figured it wasn't all too California dreamin' of me to be bumping sweaty shoulders with thousands of other over-weight rednecks in the stadium trying to get a glimpse of the band over a sea of balding hair-dos. Instead I hit up the beach behind the stadium, had an adult beverage, enjoyed the sun set, and listened to the live tunes. Brian Wilson woulda' smiled.
Day157
Sunday August 3rd
Man what a busy day; I woke up super early in a field of the 33, drove down to the beach and read West of Jesus off the PCH as the tide rolled in, went to Lizard's Mouth to survey fire damage, climbed at Painted Caves, swallowed more then my share of flies, came back to town and ended up watching Sunday Night Fights at Surf Shack. All told it was a pretty chill Sunday!

Day 156
Saturday August 2nd
Spent the majority of the day out at Oil Piers off of the PCH. The Ventura County Star photo crew had set up an impromptu rave to celebrate Glover's b-day. It was a pretty raving afternoon afterall. Many folks say newspaper as a medium is totally dead. I tell you though, whether it is dead or not, it still has a few sparks up its sleeve. With the incredible photo talent and ensuing conversation at the beach that day, you would never have guessed LIFE mag folded years ago. Just ask the assembled guests-- there are frontiers still to be explored and first to be had. Luminary Dave LaBelle swang down, AP Videographer extrodinaire Sky Gilbar stopped in from Panama, freelancer to the gods Eric Thayer graced us, professor & free thinker Paul Meyers hung out, the quiet wunderkind Michal Czerwonka chilled, the loveable Juliette tried out the hula, and the rest of the Star photog team (minus Juan Carlos who was probably chopping down a tree up at Pine Mtn.) partied it up in good old fashionned style. I dusted off the trusty Lens Baby and tagged along for the ride trying not to make too much noise.
